Hembrug 1918 rifle?

I have an old rifle given to me around 20 years ago by a distant relative that went in the garage and was forgotten about. Found it again recently and thought maybe someone here could shed some light on its history.

It has 'HEMBRUG 1918' stamped on the bolt housing and seems to have taken a cartridge of some sort (now missing). It has a sliding sight with increments from 2-20 in front of the bolt.

On the butt is a screwed in gold plate thats stamped '1-Legioen I 270'.

My serial number is 4041F (from memory) and has the same B with the crown markings here and there. The cartridge housing has the number 05 stamped underneath. Unlike the one pictured it has no rubber butt plate but it does have strap loops.

The sight on mine has exactly the same side profile but has a raised horizontal 3 inch long rail with increments that protrudes from it facing rearwards. It raises and lowers as its adjusted in/out using a spring loaded slider.

For some reason all of the links above won't open for me. I get "page no longer available." Anyway, I have an extra Dutch/Mannlicher bolt that may fit your gun. The extra bolt I have fits my Dutch Service Carbine, Cal 6.5X53R. Serial # on the bolt is 136.

Thanks berto. Guess gt73 didn't subscribe to his thread as he hasn't responded to the offer of a bolt. As you said, "it happens." Should gt73 check this post again, I suggest he drop me a private message.
